Within the CBD and suburbs, [http://www.metrotas.com.au Metro Tasmania] provides a wonderful weekday service, even not finishing too early (there are buses up to 11pm on several lines). It's also cheap, by international standards. It's 3$30 ticket bought on board, but you can get 20% off with a Greencard account (easy and quick to have at Metro shop), and daily ticket is capped around 5$A small problem is that the online timetables are always different from the ones at the bus station, which are also different from the real arrival of the bus (Always 5 minutes late, Hobart is a very relax city).To reach New Norfolk and then directly hitch on the A10, you can use the other bus compagny, [http://derwentvalleylink.com.au/ Derwent Valley Link] (8$, but Greencard reduction doesn't apply)However, do not rely on it on weekends, as the service becomes intermittent and unreliable. To travel to the country or intercity, services such as Hobart Coaches (owned by Metro), [http://www.redlinecoaches.com.au/ Redline], or [http://www.tigerline.com.au/ Tigerline] or [http://www.tassielink.com.au/ Tassielink] will be your friends. Although a bit expensive, Greencard reductions apply on Tassielink. ====To and from the airport====The Hobart Airporter is more a big taxi dropping you at your hostel than a real bus, and it will cost you at least 15$. A bit of hitching will save you that money : take the bus to Warrane or Mornington to cross the Derwent and then hitch at the entry of the Tasman Highway for a 6km lift.
